NAB branches shut for security threat

NAB branches have been temporarily closed after the bank was forced to shut following a “physical security threat.”

In a statement released on Wednesday afternoon, NAB said all branches would be shut, with police involved to ensure the safety of all customers.

“Unfortunately we have had to close our branches temporarily due to a physical security threat,” the statement read.

“This includes commercial offices where they are co-located with branches. Where our ATMs are located onsite at a branch we are also taking them offline.

“As always the safety and security of our customers and colleagues is our priority. We are working closely with police and will provide an update as soon as we can.

“Digital banking services including internet and mobile banking, as well as telephone banking, remain available to customers as normal.”

More to come.
